I went a bit "full-bore / whole-hog" and bought Izotope's "Stutter Edit". It is great for stuff like this.

I'm pretty sure that Native Instruments' "The Finger" does what you are looking for as well.

other than the already mentioned, The Finger and stutter edit...

if you have maxforlive there is a max4live object called 'tape stop'. you can find it at the max4live blog.
